In fact I think INDIA is the safest place to live in on earth for Indians.Yes I do agree that there is terror of terrorism; but then u need to firmly fight againstit.

If u think so ur definitely wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Are Indians safe in a country like AUSTRALIA,infact Indians are insultedthere and where ever we go and what ever we do.....there is nothing that equals our mother and mother land. violence and problems maybe a trouble for us ..but i think there will be no placewith out problems .... what we need to do is justto manage ourselves.........

any ways to sum it up..INDIA IS THE SUPERIOR,THE SUPREME AND THE HEAVEN FOR INDIANS. right???
______________________________________…In India there has been lack of political will and assertive decision making to bring such fugitives to justice. Barely a month later, with the Delhi blasts this weekend, the NSA might have to revise his earlier estimate; his claimssound meaningless. Jammu and Kashmir is facing unrest. The Northeast is unsettled.West Bengal andTelangana are simmering, over 160 districts in 13 states are in the grip of left wing extremism. While the crime rate is growing, abductions and extortions have almost become an industry. The rangdari and supari culture is now a new brandof threat to the Indian citizen.Money laundering, hawala, small arms proliferation and human trafficking are on the rise. The debate on countering these internal threats, however,has been overwhelmed by politics, rather than deterrent action.While India seems tobe safe are Indians secure? Or are we on course to a functional anarchy? India’s current crisis of internal security has been a concern particularly since December 2001. When terrorists assaulted Parliament, they struck at India’s nerve centre; a qualitatively different...

...ARE WOMEN SAFE IN INDIA? ARE STRINGENT LAWS ENOUGH TO CURB THE SEXUAL OVERDRIVE?
The condition of women in India has always been a matter of grave concern. Since the past several centuries, the women of India were never given equal status and opportunities as compared to that of their male counterparts. The patriarchal nature of Indian society, which even though gives respect to women as they are our mothers and sisters, has greatly hampered both the independence as well as the safety of women.
One of the main reasons of violence against women is the mentality which deems women inferior of men and merely limits their importance to the maintenance of the household, the upbringing of children and pleasing their husbands and serving other members of the family.
Even in today's times of modernization of society, many working women are still subjected to immense pressure to shoulder the dual responsibility of a housewife and a working woman simultaneously with little or no help from their husbands.
It is the same mentality which, some generations ago, used to think of women as mere objects of attaining sexual pleasure and a servant of the husband, who was considered "parameshwar" which literally translates to "supreme God".
Times have changed but the mentality still prevails in the mindsets of several narrow minded Indians.

...ARE WOMEN SAFE IN INDIAARE WOMEN SAFE IN INDIA?
Women in India-a better half of Indian society, today, are becoming the most vulnerable section as far as their safety and security is concerned. When we turn the pages of a newspaper, we come across many headlines reporting cases of sexual assault, molestation, sexual harassment, rapes, trafficking, ill treatment of women in houses, violence against women in remote areas etc. What does this indicate? This certainly implies that there has been an increasing trend of such sexual overdrives in present generation.
Our Indian Constitution has envisaged moral principles of equality (of status, opportunity, law) for our citizens but this has not yet been fully realized.
One of the main reasons of violence against women is the mentality which deems women inferior of men and merely limits their importance to the maintenance of the household, the upbringing of children and pleasing their husbands and serving other members of the family.
Times have changed but the mentality still prevails in the mindsets of several narrow minded Indians. Still our better halves are unsafe and unsecure towards the realization of freedom and liberty. It's unbearable to imagine the plight of women who are sufferers of such crimes. It's a jolt on the confidence of the women, of society and on our judicial system. Besides it has much of cascading effects which affects her life.

...ARE WOMEN IN INDIASAFE?
Matrudevobhava
"All Indians are my brothers and sisters"
"Ladies First"
India's definition of the term "ladies first" is not for the development, constructive, progressive things my friends. With India, "ladies first" since decades has been about victimizing women in incalculable, brutal crimes.
And with that note, a good afternoon to respected jury members, members of the audience and my fellow orators I, Aishani Sheth would not want to answer this question by saying women in India are safe or otherwise. Rather, I would like to expose the true nature of the very question.
"Does the sun rise in the East?" Well, this is not a question that needs an answered, is it? It is rhetoric and the condition of women in India today is such that this question too becomes rhetoric.
I do not wish to talk about how walking alone at night or going to schools or waiting for transport in broad daylight also or staying in your own house or just enjoying with friends IS NOT SAFE today! All of us know it because every 20minutes a rape case is reported in India and statistics state more than 50% cases are not even reported.
But I am going to talk about who a woman is! She is a mother, a wife, a lover, a daughter, a friend, a professional, a sister. And I am not going to give names, all I am going to give you is 5 instances.
In Kerela a teenage daughter...

Incredible India!!
A woman is the full circle. Within her is the power to create, nurture and transform. - Diane Mariechild
Woman must not accept; she must challenge. She must not be awed by that which has been built up around her; she must reverence that woman in her which struggles for expression.
- Margaret Sanger
You must learn to be still in the midst of activity and to be vibrantly alive in repose. - Indira Gandhi
First and foremost, exemplary punishment would be the best method of sending the correct message throughout the society. Potential criminals will be deterred once they see that justice is done and it is done within a time framework.
Secondly, skewed sex ratio is bound to bring crimes into picture. India needs to be educated that girls should be allowed to live. Killing girls in the womb must be stopped. Again, exemplary punishment to the offenders will go a long way in improving the situation.
Education, correct representation of women in media, transparency in social interaction of the two genders, liberal and accepting attitudes, and most importantly a speedy and strong justice system will go a long way in ensuring safety of girls in our country.
Our cities are not quite safe for the Indian women, especially the girls who have...

...society in India has still not been able to adjust itself to the fresh wave of women's liberation. But today the times have changed, the Indian woman has cast off her age-old shakles of serfdom and male domination. She has come to her own and started scaling the ladders of social advance with proud dignity.
In Vedic India, woman enjoyed an enviable status She was considered to be a goddess, something like the Greek Athena, the supreme source of man's inspiration She was called 'Ardhangini'. We hear of women sages and scholars in the vedic age. But the status of women suffered a setback in the Brahmanic age. In the Muslim rule, women completely lost their glory; they were relegated into the background, cut-off from the mainstream of life. They were devitalized and made dependent of men folk. Evil and inhuman ill-practices fostered in the society to deharmonise them; chief among them being the 'Puradah' system, 'Sati' system, child marriage, denial of education and permanent ban on widow re-marriages. The Britishers knew well the supreme value of mother in nation-buildings So they cleverly engaged -selfish 'Pandits' and 'Mullahas' for preaching feminine inferiority. Women were reduced to mere household drudges, in a way, they lived a semi-dead life.
With the dawn of freedom our national leaders, Gandhiji, Nehruji and Dr. Rajendra Prasad in particular, began to think seriously about the urgent need of feminine emancipation. They realized the fact...

...sorts of strictures have been inflicted upon them, reducing their status to a mere play thing or a slave of man's whims, a mere chattel to be dumb driven. They have been confined to the hearth and home. The orthodox male-oriented society in India has still not been able to adjust itself to the fresh wave of women's liberation .But ours is still a male-dominated society. Women still continue to be exploited. There are still places where women are beaten, raped, and murdered without so much as a second thought practices.India is one of these places. A place that is both progressive on paper and in some urban areas but are also far behind in practice and in rural communities. What progress has already been made to protect women in India and what still needs to be done to ensure the equal treatment of women in all areas of India? Violence against women and girls represents a global health, economic development, and human rights problem. At least one out of every three women worldwide has been beaten, coerced into sex, or otherwise abused in her lifetime, with rates of domestic violence reaching 70% in some countries.This abuse of women and their rights is something more developed countries are taking very seriously. Over 7,000 women in India will be murdered by their family or their husband’s family because of arguments about dowries. Violence against women is rooted in a global culture of discrimination which...

...Bengal Legislative Council and inflicted defeats on three ministries. The Calcutta Municipal Act of 1923 was a major landmark in the history of local self-government in India. The Swarajists were elected to the Calcutta Corporation in a majority in 1924. Deshbandhu was elected mayor and Subash Chandra Bose was appointedChief Executive Officer. The leaders of Swaraj Party began to advocate fordominion status to India. Many of the elected deputies soon forgot about obstruction and began cooperating with the government (tariff autonomy bill passed, 1923). In 1924 Gandhi was released from prison due to poor health and was elected President of the Indian National Congress. 1925 saw the first woman becoming the president of Indian National Congress when Sarojini Naidu was elected President for the Kanpur session.
Revolutionary Movement in India during 1920s and 1930s
The revolutionaries in northern India organized under the leadership of the old veterans, Ramprasad Bismil, Jogesh Chatterjee, Chandrashekhar Azad and Sachindranath Sanyal whose ‘Bandi Jiwani’ served as a textbook to the revolutionary movement. They met in Kanpur in October 1924 and founded the Hindustan Republican Association (HRA) to organize armed revolution to overthrow colonial rule and establish in its place a Federal Republic of the United States of India.

...This issue has been raised again but no one is really bothered in this nation to do something about it. Whether she is a college student travelling in some train, a working woman returning home or a housewife walking on a road, from a child of tender years to a lady 65 years of age, no one is safe. The case of the TV journalist Soumaya Visawanathan, who got killed while she was returning home late night after working in Delhi, had shaken everyone. On top of it Chief Minister of Delhi, Mrs. Sheila Dixit, infamously commented in an interview that Soumaya was trying to be “adventurous” by returning home all alone at such odd hours.
According to a survey posted on India Today website, one in every two Delhi University girls is sexually harassed. Shalini (name changed) , a student of a university in Chennai, still recalls how she and her friends got ill treatment from fellow passengers while they were back on their way after an outing and how everyone in that local train compartment was a mute spectator.
This kind of treatment is restricted not just to the natives but extends also to the foreigners visiting our country; the rape case filed by a British tourist in Goa in January 2008 was just one of the more publicised ones. Even in villages, some women as old as 50 years of age have the agony of being tagged as witches and are stripped naked and paraded around in the village.
So why is nothing being done except increasing women’s quota to 50...
